Get in the mood for color.

Legendary Chinese filmmaker Wong Kar-Wai is renowned for his vivid use of color, which the kind folks over at Glass Distortion have made abundantly clear in a sweeping new compilation titled simply, “Wong Kar Wai: Color Obsession.” As the filmmaker’s varied spectrum of bright hues and darker tones splash across the screen, one can see how crucial this colorful aesthetic is to creating the distinct mood and atmosphere for which his films are known.

The Chinese auteur’s obsession with color is well documented, as in this 1998 interview with Bomb Magazine, when he compared “Chungking Express” (1994) to “Fallen Angels” (1995) by discussing both films’ palettes: “Whereas ‘Chungking’ was sunshiny and suffused with bright, lovely daytime colors, ‘Fallen Angels’ is more about neon, and night time, and grunge.”

Glass Distortion also gives credit to Kar-Wai’s longtime cinematographer, Christopher Doyle. In addition to shooting much of the Kar-Wai ouvre, Doyle has worked with Gus Van Sant (“Psycho”), Jim Jarmusch (“The Limits of Control”), and Zhang Yimou (“Hero”).

The films used in the supercut are: “Chungking Express” (1994), “Ashes Of Time” (1994), “Fallen Angels” (1995), “Happy Together” (1997), “In the Mood for Love” (2000), “2046” (2004), “My Blueberry Nights” (2007), “There’s Only One Sun” (2007), and “The Grandmaster” (2013). The tribute includes one short film, and the only features missing are his first two: “As Days Go By” (1988), and “Days of Being Wild” (1990).
